Deloris O' Riordan.
One of the great things about living in a city with a long, deep history in alternative music (way before it was called that) is to attend an "early adopter" type concert where the rising star was playing a small gig. In the late '80's, I got to see the Cranberries in front of stage that wasn't even elevated. I was a kid back then, and she was younger than me. Needless to say, when they came back they played a much larger venue.
RIP Deloris. |

That's so sad. I have some of her music on my youtube playlist out in the garage.

"When you're gone" was a big mainstream hit. She was purportedly one of the richest women in the UK, at least at one point. She actually lived just up the road from here for quite a while.

Always sad when someone so young passes away. That being said, I was never a fan of her quirky song styling..

Aw man, that's a major bummer.
I had a couple Cranberries CDs but hadn't followed them since the 90s. About six weeks ago, I had a hankering for some of their music and spent a couple hours watching various youtube renditions of Dreams and Linger. Had a mad crush on Delores and I still swoon like a little puppie when I watch her sing and play a Gretch. I'm not much for 90s music in general but the Cranberries and Oasis were as good as it gets for my money. |

Saw this feisty Irish chic in concert. Amazing pipes.

Me neither, could only listen to the Cranberries in small doses. Wife is a big fan, though.
